Please Note: The following is posted neither in support or opposition of fox hunting, It is posted merely as a documentation of an event taking place in the county of Leicestershire, therefore I ask that all views are respected in the comments where posted thank you.

The Fernie hunt meet like many others in the county of Leicestershire and across the country on boxing day in and around the village of Great Bowden annually and is a tradition that has roots going back many centuries recent changes to laws governing the event mean that the hunt now meets in the village before following a sent trail around the local countryside my film shows the hunt leader leaving the kennels with the hounds before meeting the rest of the hunt on the village green later we see the riders and hounds approaching a halt just outside the village before riding away following the scent trail.
